What I did on my Summer Vacation

Chapter 3

Jun, Pakku, Long Feng and Joo Dee

-

Katara was still unpacking when Katie poked her optimistic head in to the room.

"Katara? Toph? If you could just com'on down to the living room that would be great!" before Katara or Toph could respond Katie finished for them, "Great! I'll see you there!"

Everyone was moving to the living room.

"Katara!" Someone blindsided her with a hug, Suki followed Yue's lead and dog piled on Katara.

"Hey! When did you guys get here?" Toph helped all three to their feet, while hugging Toph Yue said, "about 3 minutes ago!"

"Attention campers!" Kevin was indicating everyone should sit down, "Well now that we've all settled we're going to introduce the rest of our staff. Just follow me!" we did so obediently.

The surrounding forest was filled with life, each tree was a bright green and the earth was fresh. They were led down to a lake, it was a clear crystal blue, and a smooth dock with a tiny cabin was on the lake's edges.

A man with a long braid was waiting for them while another man stood beside him, his hair grey making him look like a wolf.

"Welcome campers." The man in the braid raised a hand in greeting, "I am Long Feng the head of the camp."

The campers mumbled a hello while the man beside Long Feng barked, "Speak up!"

"Yes SIR!" the campers all stood to attention. Pakku walked in front of their line hands behind his back.

"I am Pakku but you can call me Master, this is Lake Laogai, this is my lake. Any question?"

"No SIR!"

"Dismissed!"


"Next we have the stable." They rounded a patch of trees and found themselves in a field surrounded by the forest. A stable was sitting at the edge and horses could be heard whinnying and snorting. A galloping of hooves interrupted their thoughts, from a trail leading off into the forest, 2 giant black horses sped towards them. They stopped right before the campers, rearing and nostrils flaring.

"I am Jun." one of the riders dismounted, her black hair tied up and was wearing a long black dress with black legging and matching knee high boots, "This is my horse, Shirshu." She placed a hand on the beast's flank. Black eyes rolled slightly and Shirshu fidgeted.

On top of the other horse was Celia, smiling but still looking awkward beside Jun's predator-like stance.

"Tomorrow you will meet your horse."

And with that Jun mounted her horse in one movement and cantered off to the stables, Celia following behind waving a goodbye.


By the time they returned to the main camp dusk was rising; the group was gathered around the dinner tables waiting for dinner.

"Hello there campers." Said a voice from behind them. A woman was smiling, carrying a steaming pot of something, "I'm Joo Dee and have been given the honor to be this year's cook."

Katara's eyes were wide open while Sokka's mouth was open, Aang was looking frightened out of his mind and Zuko was looking oddly disturbed.

They sat through the meal Joo Dee not blinking and still smiling, talk was minimal they wre tiered and ready for a good night's sleep.

Finally when Joo Dee cleared away the tables the campers were sent to bed. Katara and Top found themselves alone in their room.

"Where's Azula?" Katara asked the girl below her, Toph's hair was out of it's normal bun and was fanned around her pillow, Toph was in shorts and a t-shirt with some band's logo on it. Katara was similar except she had pajama pants on.

"I don't know Sugar Queen probably off with Jet." Toph mumbled into her pillow.

"'Night Toph."

"Night Sugar Queen."


Toph and Katara were awoken when Azula, who was slipping into bed after a session with Jet, found a certain plastic fiend in her bed.

The scream woke up everyone and Ty Lee, Suki, Mai and Yue all came running. When they opened the door they found Azula's eye teary looking furious while cowering on the top bunk while Katara and Toph had tears of mirth in their eyes, Katara laugh paired with Toph's bark.

"What happened?" Celia came running in wearing a tank top and pj bottoms. Azula was still recovering and Katara and Toph were laughing to hard to speak. Celia took a look around the room and spotted the snake. She jumped back slightly but realized that it wasn't moving. She approached and picked up the snake causing a sharp intake of breath fro Azula and reinvigorated giggling from the other 2.

"Miss Sozin…why do you have a snake in you bed?"

Azula jumped down from her hiding place, "You fool! Why would I put a snake in my bed?"

"I'm sure I don't want to know the reasoning but be sure next time you have a snake in your bed, you don't let the rest of the camp know." Celia leant and whispered in her ear, "I'm sure that's something you want to keep to yourself."

Everyone laughed except for Azula, even Mai and Ty Lee her former friends giggled.

And that was how the Prank War began.


A/N

Another thing I've noticed the secret entrance to The Dragon Bone Catacombs is similar to the Lotus Tile.

I almost have too much time on my hands.
